Fonts on websites

Hi All

Is there a specific font that most people use with web site design.

ie. I notice that the main microsoft site and other big sites like
bbc.co.uk (the most visited site in Europe), easyjet.com etc etc all use
different fonts.

Is there one font that comes out best on most servers.

Just FYI, it is not the server displaying the font, it is the user's
machine. That is, the user must have the font installed on their system,
that you're using in your pages. See the reply about "web safe fonts" from
Tom Pepper.
